Although the situation isn't funny,
nevertheless I found some sort of maudlin humour over the report of Jules
Bianchi being mugged over his wristwatch whilst in Gay Paree recently. As there
seems to be something lacking to the story, or better yet why he felt so
compelled to be wearing a $70,000 Euros timepiece to begin with eh?
As the report also brings me the first chink
in Monsieur Bianchi's armour, that he was assailed while smoking a cigarette,
as I'd think that a top-flight F1 driver such as thee young Jules would know
the afflictions to his health smoking most certainly will bring him? As Jules
is currently one of the four F1 drivers I'm most intrigued by these days..
Then again, I'm not expecting the 24yr old
Frenchman to go all Uncle 'Bernaughty on us - Yuhs know when the battered 'N
bruised Messer Bernard Ecclestone turned his watch mugging episode into a
commercial and probably even got a new wristwatch thrown in to boot; Hmm? Wonder if
he'll be sending the German Prosecutors any Hublots as Easter presents this year?
